This is a summary of the Cockpit weekly release. This week it was 0.93
Set CPU performance profile via tuned -------------------------------------
Cockpit can now talk to tuned and set the CPU performance profile of the system. Thanks to Ryan Barry for doing the initial prototype, and Jaroslav Škarvada for fixing up tuned to include profile descriptions.

Support for WebSocket client in cockpit-bridge ----------------------------------------------
In order to better talk to services like Kubernetes or the Atomic Docker Registry we've added WebSocket support to the cockpit-bridge. It can now connect to local WebSockets on the system.
But here's an example of what you can do with that: The demo below shows GTK+ 3 apps running inside of Cockpit. GTK+ 3 supports HTML5 as a display mode, and Cockpit can wrap that in authentication and a real Linux login session:

Support using Nulecule with Openshift -------------------------------------
The Cockpit kubernetes UI can now deploy Nulecule apps into an Openshift or Atomic Enterprise cluster. This is older code that recently got merged, and the Nulecule "spec" is a moving target, so YMMV.

Actually exit cockpit-ws when it's idle ---------------------------------------
There was a regression where cockpit-ws no longer exited when idle. This is now fixed. If socket activated, cockpit-ws will exit 90 seconds after the last user logs out.
